Is it possible to cancel all A4J requests temporarily?

Hi,

Here's my problem. I have certain a4j:commandLink type actions that may take 1 or 2 seconds to process. During this time the user can click on some other a4j link and in some instances this can screw up the application. I can always correct these "instances" on the server side but it would be much easier to just block all ajax requests while one is already in progress. Is this possible? I was looking at the eventsQueue attribute although I don't think this will help as this will just make sure events execute in the correct order, same problem with delay, which will just delay the execution.

Thanks

eventQueue doesn't allow next request to be sent until previous under processing. So it should works ok for your case.

yes but it will still send the next request right? I want it cancel the request completely, like in the case where the user thinks something is taking too long and clicks it again. I don't want it to send the request a second time even after the first one is complete. Since I haven't actually tested eventQueue I suppose I'll try this one for myself and see if it does what I need.

Thanks
